Abstract :
Field programmable gate arrays (FPGA) are rapidly gaining popularity for signal processing applications. Multiplication, addition and multiply-accumulate (MAC) are the most important building blocks in signal processing. This paper compares a number of structures to find the optimum configurations for minimum delay, size and cost in an FPGA.
